Finished Halo: CEA, and got 1,000g on it. Whomever made the achievements for making it through The Library on Legendary in under 30 minutes and to complete the same level on Heroic or Legendary without dying deserves a swift kick up the jacksie with a steel toed boot.

Now playing Halo 3: ODST. I don't do favourites, but this would be a strong contender for being my favourite Halo game. It's basically a Firefly game . Though I did start again, as I wanted to do the missions in order. They say you can do them in whichever order you want, but I feel it is better to do them in the top-to-bottom order they're marked on the map._________________I am a Star Wars fan.

I'm playing fable III to get the achievements. Pretty crappy game, but like most, the achievements are kind of fun._________________Unsure whether it was desire or despair that kept me drawing breath.

I love achievements, but not the stupid ones like "Complete this level on X Difficulty," those are stupid. The achievements for Team Fortress 2 are fantastic. It's stuff that you'd have to put effort into doing it, you wouldn't come across it naturally. Example; As a spy, kill someone who then respawns as a pyro.

And I've been enjoying Fallout, although It's a bit annoying not knowing what the location that you're going towards is. As in, it's just an arrow, not a shack or town or whatever.

And still trying to get into Deus Ex. The first level is very annoying, as I chose non-lethal and can't get past anyone without them seeing me._________________There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn.

Finished ODST. I love that game. I recall one incident where I was roaming New Mombasa, low on ammo, so I took an alternate route in the hopes of avoiding a party of Covenant - only to run into a group of three Brutes and two Jackals. I hid behind some cover and while the Brutes merely stood about 20ft away the Jackals advanced on me, one to each side! How cool is that? I'm a big fan of the AI of the Halo series - this case being a good example.

Now playing Halo: Reach._________________I am a Star Wars fan. That doesn't mean that I hate or love Jar Jar. That doesn't mean I hate or love Lucas, or agree or disagree 100% with him.

Played some more Old Republic this week. While I was traveling for work, they started server transfers, and my nearly-dead server was on the list! So this weekend I was playing with tons of people. There were so many people that they needed to separate certain places (like the Fleet) into multiple instances._________________"I'm...from Earth."

Playing Portal 2 once again. That game just makes me incredibly happy. _________________

I tried making some test chambers the other day! Wanna try?

Edit: Anyone who's played Deus Ex: Human Revolution, is there any way to restore health without painkillers? Like resting or going to a LIMB clinic?_________________There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn.

I've upgraded to Live Gold for the month, so now I'm playing AC: Revelations multiplayer, probably later mixed with Reach._________________I am a Star Wars fan.

I think I'm going to buy Tony Hawk's Underground on the Xbox. I've completed it three times, one time 100% on Sick difficulty and found every tape. Tied first on my list of favourite games EVER. I just want to play it again.

Edit: I'm playing a LOT of Team Fortress 2. I mean a LOT. (I play on the server "skial 100% crits orange" or something, if anyone wants to play)_________________There's always a bigger fish - Qui Gon Jinn.

So some months ago Pepsi ran a promo related to the release of Star Wars Kinect. Against all odds I somehow won first prize (4GB 360, Kinect, + Star Wars game). Now my only console is my Gamecube so I've got no 360 games to play other than the Star Wars one.

I'm a fan of games like Skyrim, RPGs in general or FPS games (typically Medal of Honor, Battlefield/Battlefront style games, and the James Bond franchise). Which leads me to my question: what are must have games that I should consider buying?

I know the Halo franchise is probably top on the list and some of my friends are fans of Assassin's Creed but other than that I don't know what games would be worth looking into buying. I'm also not sure what games would work properly on the 4GB model (and I'm not complaining about hard drive size, free is free)._________________

4GB is beyond enough, the saves take almost no space.

Other games to try would be Bioshock 1 and 2, Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, of course TFU 1 and 2, and between all those and all the Halo games and all the Assassin's Creed games you'll be busy awhile. Oh, and Mass Effect._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice. The only way to get it quicker is to sacrifice the most.

Hmm... I've heard Fallout 3 is very good. Black Ops is really good (is you like a good ol' multiplayer fps).

Oh, Portal 2. What an amazing game you are. Just finished it for the 3rd time. And I could play it again. Right now. It's that awesome. _________________
